Some folks had asked me for the address of the *awesome* Greek foods store in Daly City, and now I can give it to you (below). The prices there are quite reasonable. $30 bought me all this: a large box of pistachio turkish delight, a half pound of manouri cheese, a large round sesame loaf, a jar of eggplant sauce, a tin of dolmades, a half pound of good olives, filo dough, a bottle of sour cherry syrup (for Italian sodas), a piece of spanakopita, and a piece of tiropita. Plus a handful of mints that the proprietor added into my bag with a smile. They are at:

Greek Imports Inc.
6524 Mission Street (Top of the Hill), cross street is Theta
Daly City, CA 94014
650-994-3321

I made turkish delight one time and took it to my counseling theories class...

The store sounds wonderful. It reminds me of an Italian store, Vivianos, in the Italian area of St. Louis, MO, called "the Hill".

Thanks for adding me, I just added you back.

Welcome...

Cool, what flavor?

I'm a psychologist too, which is how I found your LJ.

Good to meet you,

I made a grape flavor because I didn't have any other fruit in the house that winter.

I got interested in trying to make it when I got a free sample in the mail from this company. Their apple and apricot turkish delight candies with nuts are great.

One day, I'd like to make a good batch of the traditional pistachio turkish delight like you got.

It is a little tricky, you need a candy thermometer and experimentation to get it right. It's fun to try stuff like that though, even if it isn't perfect. I learn a lot by trying.
